Also, I've never submitted a coin for certification, and I was interested in opinions on whether this was nice enough to be sent in to ICCS. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

VG10 at least,may make F12 but IMO too much wear on the reverse crown and leaves. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 07/06/2013 02:34 am Report this Post to the Staff

I ordered the 2012 Charlton catalog however I've not had much luck finding information on this variety online while I'm waiting for my order. I don't know that much about Canadian 50 cent pieces, I purchased this in a deal that included an 1870 Newfoundland half and an 1872 Newfoundland 5 cents. Report this Post to the Staff
